Midland Montessori School is dedicated to the learning methods developed by Dr. Maria Montessori (1870) a pioneer in education and child development.

Her method allows children to fulfill this curiosity and explore their interests by completing specific tasks that move from simple to complex. Children become creative and independent learners because they understand concepts rather than simply memorizing facts. Freedom with responsibility in the classroom is the key to instilling confidence pride and strength of character in the child.

The child-centered Montessori classroom is a caring community where children practice kindness respect and responsibility. The focus on each child as an individual makes this approach unique.

Parents are recognized as the child’s first and most important teacher; therefore they are encouraged to be actively involved in their child’s education. Visits to the classroom are welcome and parents are invited to share their talents knowledge and interests with the students. Midland Montessori parents teachers and children work together as a community of learners.

We encourage you to consider at least three years of Montessori education to get the maximum benefit of concrete materials and the development of self-discipline.
